NLEX Traffic Sucks!

[ian_rex]

hi guys, probably all of us in one way or another have used NLEX whether on the way to work or to our homes. the traffic, as in any roads undergoing a rehabilitation is inevitable.

but wait a minute, as i have observed these past few days, the traffic is getting worser and worser. as early as 5 A.M. the traffic is already piling up both ways, be it north or south bound (especially on the Tullahan Bridge) and stretches to the Malinta Exit, sometimes beyond that. And the traffic swells every minute.

the absence of warning devices, is the major cause, aside from the vehicle volume and the unscrupulous driver. even if there are such devices, it is placed too near the construction site, preventing the motorists to anticipate the road situation creating a choke point...

sana naman, yang mga l....k na cotractors at PNCC na yan mahalata na ito ang problema, nakakagalit e.

Expect a more heavier traffic next week.

[ian_rex]

sabi nila stop daw muna ang gawaan at aalisin din ang mga heavy equipments to make way for the lenten season. sana lang magkatotoo...

traffic din sa san simon area south bound.

pare... mag mc arthur highway ka na lang...

nag try ako kanina... kahit medyo stop and go ok na yun... maayos pa ang mga kalsada...

ilan oras kaya kung puro mcarthur hiway from san fernando to caloocan?

[kimpOy]

masarap ngang mag sight seeing sa mc arthur hiway lalo na kapag matagal tagal ka ng hindi dumadaan.

boybi, nung nag aaral ako kapag yung rabbit na bus eh dadaan sa mcarthur inaabot ako ng plus 2 hours, hindi ko lang alam ngayon.

nung thursday ng gabi nag punta akong meycauayan around 11 na ako dumating dun. tapos pagpapunta ko nakikita ko ang traffic pabalik ng manila, hanggang dumating ako dun sa exit. as in halos bagal ng galaw.

naghatid lang kasi ako kaya balik agad. nag mcarthur hiway ako, ang bilis lang hehe 1145 ata nasa may malate na ako

[boybi]

agahan ko nalang sigurong umalis sa amin, hindi pa siguro gaano traffic kapag mga 7-8am sa NLEX.

[yebo]

try mo 3am, ok na ok. 2x na ko nagbyahe probinsya ng 3am to pangasinan saka zambales, tama lang dating ko nagluluto ng almusal 5:30 am hehehe!

[zanch]

yebo's right pare. try 3am or mga 2 am pag medyo byahe mo. Every other week umuuwi ako sa Tarlac and umaalis ako 3 am. Ok byahe.;)

[rebel]

I use the NLEX almost daily.

Going up north if 7 to 8am it will take you about 1 hour from balintawak to dau but from dau to balintawak will take about 2 hours.

Konting tiis pa sa November deadline nila.

You guys will appreciate the finish portions of the NLEX. it's really nice.

[boybi]

hehe, ayoko nga ng 2-3am. e 9am pa ang earliest appointments ko dyan, and at least once a week ako gumamit ng NLEX.

zanch, san ka sa tarlac?

[kimpOy]

boybi, you got pm
